Independent Auditor's Review Report
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors
Alcoa International Holdings Company (AIHC)
We have reviewed the unaudited consolidated balance sheet of
AIHC and subsidiaries as of September 30, 1994 and the unaudited
statements of consolidated income and retained earnings for the
three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 1994 and
1993, and consolidated cash flows for the nine-month periods
ended September 30, 1994 and 1993, which are included in AIHC's
Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 1994. These
financial statements are the responsibility of AIHC's management.
We conducted our review in accordance with standards
established by the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants. A review of interim financial information consists
principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data
and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and
accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an
audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion
regarding the financial statements taken as a whole.
Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material
modifications that should be made to the consolidated financial
statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with generally
accepted auditing standards, the consolidated balance sheet of
AIHC and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1993, and the related
statements of consolidated income and retained earnings, and cash
flows for the year then ended (not presented herein). In our
report dated January 11, 1994, except for Note P for which the
date is February 7, 1994, we expressed an unqualified opinion on
those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the
information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated
balance sheet as of December 31, 1993 is fairly stated, in all
material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet
from which it has been derived.

Overview
Alcoa International Holdings Company's (AIHC) 1994 third
quarter earnings were $5.1 higher than the 1993 period. Year-
to-date earnings were $39.4 lower than in the respective 1993
period. Earnings for the 1993 nine-month period included a
favorable adjustment of $26.3 from a reduction in Australia's
corporate tax rate from 39% to 33%. Lower prices on products
within the Alumina segment also negatively affected 1994
earnings.
AIHC's operations, divided into three segments, follow:
1. Alumina Segment
Total revenues from the alumina segment were $234.7 in the
1994 third quarter, a decrease of 12% from the 1993 quarter.
Year-to-date, revenues were down 7% from the 1993 nine-month
period.
Alumina shipments increased 7% and 9%, respectively, over the
1993 third quarter and nine-month periods. In spite of
increased shipments, revenues dropped 11% compared to the
1993 third quarter because of a 17% decline in prices. Year-
to-date, revenues and prices are down 7% and 15%,
respectively, primarily due to an oversupply of alumina
brought on by aluminum production curtailments.
Revenues from alumina-based chemicals increased 6% in the
1994 quarter and 7% year-to-date over the respective 1993
periods. The revenues include those from ACAP Australia
(ACAP), a subsidiary which began operations in the 1993
fourth quarter. Excluding ACAP revenues, third quarter
revenues decreased 4%, reflecting changes in product mix.
Year-to-date, revenues were down 3% due to a 15% reduction in
prices, partially offset by a 14% increase in shipments.
Gold revenues for the 1994 nine-month period fell 25% from
1993 due to a reduction in shipments resulting from lower
grade ore. Prices also fell by 16%. Gold production was
92,610 ounces compared to 103,870 ounces during the 1993
period.
2. Aluminum Segment
For the third quarter, total revenues from this segment were
up 29%, compared to the 1993 period. For the nine-month
period, revenues increased 19%. Most of the increases relate
to Alcoa-Kofem, Kft (Kofem) which experienced higher
shipments in the 1994 quarter and year-to-date periods for
nearly all of its products.
Primary aluminum shipments for the first nine months of 1994
were down 2% from 1993. Alcoa of Australia's (AofA)
shipments were down due to production cuts, but growth in
Kofem shipments helped offset the decline. In 1993, AofA
reduced production by 25,000 metric tons (mt) at its Point
Henry smelter in Geelong, Australia and 26,000 mt at the
Portland, Australia smelter. AofA has a 45% interest in the
Portland smelter. Ingot revenues for the 1994 nine months
increased 6%, reflecting higher realized prices. Aluminum
ingot prices continue to rise due to higher demand for
aluminum and reductions in worldwide aluminum production.
Rigid container sheet (RCS) revenues from AofA increased 24%
from the 1993 third quarter, resulting from a 32% rise in
shipments, partially offset by a 7% decline in prices. Year-
to-date, RCS shipments and revenues were up 12% and 2%,
respectively.
Revenues from Alcoa Nederland Holding Company (ANH) in the
1994 nine-month period rose 6% from the comparable 1993
period. The increase was due to higher shipments of rolled
products and extrusions, and revenues from Compri Aluminum, a
producer of building products that was acquired in the third
quarter of 1993.
3. Sales and Distribution Segment
The Sales and Distribution segment includes the worldwide
sales activities of certain of the Company's wholly owned
subsidiaries. These sales subsidiaries handle a broad range
of alumina and aluminum products in various markets
worldwide. Revenues from this segment increased 14% and 19%,
respectively, from the 1993 quarter and nine-month periods.
RCS shipments to Saudi Arabia, the Far East, Mexico and
Canada along with increased shipments of forgings and plate
to Canada contributed to the improvement.
Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of goods sold was 78.2% of sales in the 1994 quarter, or
.7 percentage points higher than in the 1993 quarter. Year-
to-date, the ratio was 79.1%, 2.9 percentage points higher
than the 1993 period. The 1994 ratios were unfavorably
impacted by declining alumina and chemicals prices.
Other Income and Expense Items
Other income was unchanged from the 1993 third quarter and
down 12% from the nine-month period. The year-to-date
decrease was largely due to lower exchange adjustments,
losses on asset dispositions and lower interest income due to
liquidation of a significant portion of AofA's short-term
investments.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 31%
and 7%, respectively, from the 1993 quarter and nine-month
periods. The increases are primarily due to the addition of
Compri Aluminum (as mentioned above), a weaker U.S. dollar,
and higher selling costs at Kofem and Alcoa International S.
A.
Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense increased
12% from the 1993 third quarter and 11% from the 1993 nine-
month period. The increases are due to higher asset
capitalization and obsolescence during the 1994 periods.
Interest expense declined $2.4 and $5.2 from the 1993 third
quarter and nine-month periods. The declines are primarily
due to a significant debt reduction by AofA during the 1994
second quarter.
AIHC's estimated effective tax rate is a weighted average of
the statutory rates in the countries where AIHC operates,
primarily Australia and the U.S. The estimated effective tax
rate for 1994 is 31.3%. The difference between this rate and
the U.S. statutory rate of 35% is primarily due to taxes on
foreign income.
AIHC continues to participate in environmental assessments
and cleanups at a number of locations, including operating
facilities and adjoining properties; at previously owned and
operated facilities; and at other waste sites. AIHC records
a liability for environmental remediation costs or damages
when a cleanup program becomes probable and the costs can be
reasonably estimated. As assessments and cleanups proceed,
these liabilities are adjusted based on progress in
determining the extent of remedial actions and related costs
and damages. The liabilities can change substantially due to
factors such as the nature and extent of contamination,
changes in remedial requirements and technological changes.
AIHC's environmental remediation reserve balance at September
30, 1994 was $10 and reflects AIHC's most probable cost to
remediate identified environmental conditions.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash from operations during the 1994 nine-month period was
$159.9, down $96.4 from the same 1993 period. The reduction
was primarily caused by lower year-to-date 1994 earnings and
a reduction in tax liabilities.
In April 1994, AIHC redeemed, at par, all 500,000 outstanding
shares of its Voting Preferred Stock, Series I.
AIHC paid dividends of $7.1 to preferred shareholders in the
1994 nine-month period compared to $10.8 during the year-ago
period. The decline reflects the redemption discussed above
and lower dividend rates, most of which are set by auction
from time to time. Dividends paid by AofA during the 1994
nine-month period were $130 compared to $191 in the 1993
period. AIHC received $66.3 and $97.4, respectively, of the
AofA dividends.
Payments on long-term debt in the first nine months of 1994
exceeded additions by $173.7. The net decrease in long-term
debt is attributable to AofA debt payments made using the
proceeds from liquidation of short-term investments.
AIHC's debt as a percentage of invested capital fell to 5.1%
at September 30, 1994, compared to 10.3% at year-end 1993.
Lower debt and higher minority interests and shareholders'
equity caused the percentage to decrease.
Investing activities in the 1994 nine-month period generated
$81.5. The most significant item was $243.8 generated by a
reduction in short-term investments. Capital expenditures
reduced cash by $104.8 and new loans to related parties used
$41.0.
